What Customers Say About The City of Ember:

I am hoping this will provide an extra opportunity for us to bond. I am REALLY enjoying these books on so many levels. Initially I decided to purchase the series because I am a substitute teacher and I would go in to special reading classes for a few days and the students would be reading this series, book by book. He has The City of Ember (he is excited to read a book that will be a movie) and I am now ready to send The People of Sparks. What a great message they are sending. I would get very interested and then my time would be up and I wouldn't have gotten to read all of any of the books. I decided to buy the series and then, as I read each book, send it to my new 5th grade step-grandson.
the only thing was it was hard to imagine what was going on during certain parts because rvents in this book could never happen. jeanne has really pulled off a great book. this book has the makings of a great series. characters are well developed.
I see there are others in the series, but it is also a stand alone book BTW. Highly recommended.
At first glance, I could not really tell what type of book this was but I knew I liked being there. Our heroes race against time into amazing and scary adventures that will keep you riveted to your seat. This is a book that makes you wonder about the future. This adventure is about a girl called Lina and a boy called Doon who are trying to save their dying city while a villain is trying to destroy it. It gets your imagination going and keeps it running. The perfect setting for this book is a dark gloomy night when the trees are waving in the wind and lightning is crashing through the sky.
Fast-paced, engaging reads with believable characters, these books address big issues in a way that is comprehensible to young readers. The entire Ember series is outstanding.
